Our Mission

Good tools set us free

We love open source. Not as a marketing strategy, but as a conviction.

We release our core tools under the MIT license because we believe every developer deserves professional product management tools - without vendor lock-in, without surveillance, without asking for permission. Solo developers, indie hackers, small teams, open source communities, and enterprise organizations - all with the same chance, without privilege or disadvantage.

Our goal is to strengthen the developer community, protect their data from misuse, and elevate collaboration with AI through professional product management. We want to unleash creative minds and see great new apps built by people everywhere - in the open and inside companies.

Good tools make us free. That is why we build them and give them away.

How we fund this

The joyint.com platform is a commercial product. It funds our development and infrastructure. We believe this is fair: the open source tools work without the platform, and the platform adds genuine value for teams that need sync, collaboration, and governance at scale.

What we do with what it creates

We expect AI-assisted productivity to generate significant value. We are committed to distributing that value fairly. Profits beyond what we reinvest in the product and the team go toward social good.

We believe that no company should accumulate wealth while the world around it struggles. Everything that is not reinvested should be shared - with solidarity-based systems like public healthcare, with well-funded non-governmental organizations that help where governments cannot or do not look, and with causes that serve people in need, protect the environment, care for animals, and - perhaps most importantly - bring joy to people's lives.

Wherever these systems do not yet work, we will use whatever disproportionate gains AI-assisted work may bring to advocate for peace, equality, dignity, and joy in life.
